In one of its aspects this invention relates to isomerization and hydrocracking reactions catalyzed by a hydrogen metal bronze. In another of its aspects this invention relates to a supported catalyst system for isomerization and hydrocracking reactions. In one of its concepts the invention relates to the catalysis of hydrocracking and isomerization reactions using hydrogen metal bronze catalyst produced by the room temperature reduction of metal trioxides.
Hydrogen metal bronzes and methods for preparing these compounds have been of considerableinterest in the art as an example of the phenomenon of dissociative adsorption of hydrogen on a supported metal under conditions where direct adsorption of hydrogen on the support is negligible. This phenomenon is called spillover and is reported by Vannice, Boudart, and Fripiat inthe Journal of Catalysis l7, 359-365 (1970). In this article a-method for producing hydrogen metal bronze through a room temperature reduction is reported.
."We have found that hydrogen metal bronzes can be used as catalyst for the isomerization and hydrocracking of paraffins. It is therefore an object of this invention to provide a method for isomerizing and hydrocracking both straight chain paraffins and cycloparaffins. It is another object of this invention to provide a catalyst for the isomerization and hydrocracking of straight chain paraffins and cycloparaffins. It is still another object of this invention to provide a supported catalyst for the isomeriz ation and hydrocracking of straight chain paraffins and cycloparaffins.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In accordance with our invention, a method of isomerizing and hydrocracking paraffins is provided which comprises passing the paraffin over a hydrogen metal bronze at a temperature within the range of about 250 to about 450C. At reaction temperatures between 250 and 350C the isomerization reaction is favored. From 350 to 450C a cracking reaction is favored.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The catalyst suitable for this reaction is prepared from platinum, palladium or their oxides physically mixed with or impregnated onto a metal oxide of Group Vl-B of the Periodic Table of the Elements such as tungsten trioxide or molybdenum trioxide. These oxides can be supported on high surface area alumina, silica, titania, zirconia, or boria taken alone or in combination or other high surface area supports.
The catalyst mixtures are comprised of the metal trioxide to which is admixed from 0.002 to weight percent of the total weight of the catalyst of platinum, palladium or their oxides, preferably from 0.05 to 2 weight percent of the total weight of the catalyst. With a supported catalyst from 1 to about 50 weight percent of the total weight of the catalyst comprising the metal oxide, from'0.002 to 5 weright percent comprising platinum, palladium or their oxides, and the balance of the catalyst comprising the support. A preferred range of concentration for the supported catalyst comprises about 5 to 25 weight percent of the metal oxide, about 0.05 to 2 weight percent of platinum, palladium or their oxides, and the balance of the material being the support.
The conditions of preparation of the catalyst are very important in that at higher temperatures a reduced form of the metal oxide is produced instead of the hydrogen metal bronze produced when activation is carried out at temperatures of less than C. In the preparation of the catalyst, where impregnated catalysts are used, before hydrogen activation the catalyst mixtures are heated in dry air at 300 to 400C for 5 to 10 hours to remove volatiles. Catalysts'made by physical mixing of the components can be activated directly without pretreatment. Hydrogen activation is carried out by ex-- posure of the mixture to water vapor and then exposure to a hydrogen containing gas or by exposure to a web hydrogen containing gas at an activation temperature of less than 100C. The activation temperature should preferably be in the range of about 25 to 40C. The hydrogen containing gas can be hydrogen, hydrogen sulfide or hydrogen chloride, but hydrogen is preferred. Water vapor pressure or the partial pressure of the water vapor and hydrogen containing gas can be from 0.01 to 50 millimeters of mercury. Water vapor pressure of 5 to 25 millimeters of mercury preferred.
The length of the activation treatment depends on the concentration of the platinum, palladium, or the oxides thereof in the catalyst mixture and also on the total amount of the catalyst mixture. Catalyst treatments ranging in length from one-half hour to 24 hours have been successfully used; however, one hour is ususally a sufficient treatment time.
After activation the catalyst is heated to reaction temperature under a dry hydrogen blanket or a blanket of an inert gas such as nitrogen, argon .or the like. The reaction temperature will be in the range of about 250 to about 450C. A temperature range of 250C to 350C favors isomerization; while temperatures from 350C to 450C favor cracking. The reaction pressure can vary from one to 1,000 psia with higher pressures favoring cracking.
The catalysts of this invention can be used to isomerize and hydrocrack paraffins. The catalyst is particularly useful in hydrocracking and isomerizing straight chain paraffins having from four to 20 carbon atoms. Cycloparaffins can also be successfully isomerized and hydrocracked using these catalysts.
The hydrogen to hydrocarbon ratios useful in this invention range from 5:1 to 16:] with the higher hydro.- gen ratios up to 16:1 being referred for-the hydrocracking conditions. Throughput rate for the reaction is in the range of 'WHSV of 0.01 to 3 grams of hydrocarbon per gram of catalyst per hour with a WHSV of 0.05 to 1 preferred. 7
